Ipswich v Forest

by Timothy Masters

Ipswich take on Forest on Saturday 19th November, 2016, with kickoff at 12:30. This match is currently being shown LIVE on Sky Sports 1.

Remember when Nottingham Forest won the league, and European Cup? Back then you could genuinely manage your way to a major trophy provided you had enough in the squad, unlike today where glory is reserved for a select few. In those days, Ipswich were also something of a force, but today neither team can even claim to be in the top division, making this more of a fight between faded beauties than prom queens.

To compound the fall from glory, neither side is even close to promotion at this point, but a win here might be the catalyst for change.
